NIHI SUMBA ISLAND
WORLD CLASS RETREAT
NIHI Sumba, located on one of Indonesia’s most remote islands, has developed into a world class retreat catering to honeymooners, families and adventure enthusiasts alike.
Its rich tropical rainforest, the whiteness of the beaches, the inexorable rolling motion of the gentle Indian Ocean, the green rice paddies and swaying grasslands.
You’ll also have time to meditate on the nature of mankind as you immerse yourself in Sumba’s wild festivals, the ancient animist rituals and Stone Age sites that are such an important part of this far-flung island. Not to mention the modern day luxuries and natural beauty of NIHI Sumba itself – the thinking person’s paradise.

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”
Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.
“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”
Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough
